Herman Melville (1819-1891) foi um escritor, poeta e ensaísta estadunidense. Após a morte de seu pai, em 1832, teve de ajudar a manter a família (então com oito crianças). Assim, trabalhou como bancário, professor e fazendeiro. Em 1839, embarcou como ajudante no navio mercante St. Lawrence, com destino a Liverpool. Em 1841 esteve a bordo do baleeiro Acushnet que percorreu quase todo o Pacífico e passou um período com a tribo Typee na Polinésia. Suas aventuras marítimas continuaram ainda em outras viagens em baleeiros e arpoadores que inspiraram suas obras literárias.A história de sua obra mais popular, “Moby-Dick”, faz parte da cultura popular ocidental e foi fonte de inspiração para adaptações em diversas mídias, destacando-se o clássico filme homônimo de John Huston (1956), estrelando Gregory Peck, e as histórias em quadrinhos “Moby Dick” (2017) de Christophe Chabouté.
